Just bought ANOTHER Nekromantix cd. Return of The Loving Dead. Gargoyles Over Copenhagen is probably the best song on the disc.
Anybody else here really into the Rockabilly genre? I guess it's not technically "Punk" but i've always considered it the sister genre.

I love the clash. I'm just saying you don't talk about their non-punk songs in a club for punk music. Well it mainly depends on what the OP who started the club says because I'm not the one making the rules.
Also is post-punk open for discussion because I just started getting into joy division?

So, we're all agreed Inflammable Material is the best punk album ever, yeah?

Although Stiff Little Fingers are great, I don't think that Inflammable Material is the best punk album. Now that I've said that I'm struggling to suggest something better. It is also hard for me to choose because usually I buy "The Best of..." compilations as they tend to have the better songs from a band.

Anti-Pasti - The Punk Singles Collection is a compilation that I would rate higher than Inflammable Material. I'm not trying to say that Stiff Little Fingers are bad, I love them myself, but I fail to recognise them as having the best punk album.

I'm not sure how easy it will be to come across in stores. You will definitely be able to get a copy online somewhere. I have a copy. Well... actually it's my dads, but he doesn't mind if I keep some of his old CDs in my room.

My dad never listened to good music, I mean, the best bands he listened to were KISS and Motley Crue, which are excellent bands don't get me wrong, but I don't LOVE them... I'll probably have to find a friend with a copy and steal that, I'm not really fond of torrenting.

I see it in shops all the time. HMV had racks full of just Inflammable Material a few months back, when they had it on offer.

Wow, must have missed that. I've seen Stiff Little Fingers sections at the HMV stores in Edinburgh (closest to where I live), but I've never seen more than lile 5 CDs in there at a time, forget a whole rack. Wish I seen that.

I went to HMV looking for some of The Business's albums, but I had no such luck.

I'm kind of wondering, anybody know anything on the Misfits touring routine? I went to their show around Halloween of last year in Columbus Ohio, and all I can find as far as future tour dates are mostly European cities and a few back in the US. Do they tour the US each year?

The only 2 punk bands I like are Green Day and Sublime.

Neither are punk, green day are pop-punk and sublime are terrible reggae/rock.

You sir must simply be delusional. While as Green Day has sold out to quite an extremely faggish degree, and never really were all that great, to say that they arn't punk is just being unrealistic. They have punk ideals, they speak out against what they see wrong, they're songs use the same old generic punk structuring as most bands that i'm sure you would consider punk.
Don't get me wrong, I do not support Green Day in the least, and while as they are posers in the sense that they act far more punk then they really are, they are still definitely a punk rock band.

And to say that Sublime is terrible, and not punk shows that you obviously havn't heard much Sublime.Sublime - New ThrashSublime - What Happened - This is more of a ska type song after you get to 0:40, but if you listen to the song itself it deffinitly has a punk element as that's pretty much the life of every punk i've ever known.Sublime - Wrong Way - Once again, pretty Ska sounding, but the message in it is definitely punk.

Don't forget punk is defined in many ways, it isn't always about the sound, so much as the message.
